Recurrent opportunistic infections in a HIV-negative patient with combined C6 and mutations: A case report, pedigree analysis, and literature review.
Open Med (Wars)
December 2024
Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Hainan General Hospital (Hainan Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University), Haikou, Hainan, China.
Introduction: Recurrent opportunistic infections are particularly common in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). However, these opportunistic infections have also been reported in HIV-negative patients, especially those with primary immunodeficiency disorder (PID), a condition that involves a large heterogeneous group of disorders arising from defects in immune system development and/or function.
Case: Here, we report a very rare case of recurrent opportunistic infections in a non-HIV-infected patient combined with mutations in complement component C6 and nuclear factor kB subunit 1 ().
A qualitative study to understand the facilitators of and barriers to retention in care to the national PMTCT Option B+ programme in Uganda.
PLoS One

Monitoring and Evaluation Technical Support, Makerere University School of Public Health, Kampala, Uganda.
Introduction: Effective prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) programmes require women and their infants to have access to a cascade of HIV care and treatment interventions. Retention in care reduces the risk of vertical transmission and opportunistic infections among mothers living with HIV. Uganda has made great strides in ensuring the success of the prevention of mother to child transmission program.

BMJ Open

Center for Outcomes Research and Evaluation, Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre, Montreal, Québec, Canada.
Introduction: There is international interest in using patient-reported outcome measures in HIV care to improve the well-being of people with HIV, but the prioritisation of specific outcomes and measures remains unclear. This project's objective is to engage both people with HIV and healthcare, social and community service providers to develop a French and English-language core set of patient-reported outcomes and measures for use in HIV care at the patient level in Montreal (Canada).
Methods And Analysis: This multimethod project will follow guidance from the Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials Initiative and involve two phases.
Cluster analysis of social determinants of health and HIV/AIDS knowledge among Peruvian youths using Kohonen's self-organized maps: a data-exploration study based on a Demographic and health survey.
Glob Health Action
December 2024
Faculty of Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Universidad Continental, Lima, Peru.
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have evolved into a global development burden, with nearly 40 million infections and 25 million deaths. Compared to other age groups, youth have increased risks of contracting the disease due to social and health structural factors; thus, additional efforts are needed to effectively tackle the challenges associated with this age group. Epidemiological studies employing unsupervised learning techniques are essential for shaping public health policies.

Center for Immunity and Immunotherapies, Seattle Children's Research Institute, Seattle, WA, USA.
Reduced function or hypomorphic variants in recombination-activating genes (RAG) 1 or 2 result in a broad clinical phenotype including common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) and even adult-onset disease. Milder RAG variants are less characterized. Here we describe the longitudinal course of a milder combined RAG deficiency in 3 of 7 siblings sharing the same RAG2 mutations over a 50-year study.
